4 more than twice a number is 652

The number (x) in: "4 more than twice a number is 652" is what we are solving here.

In other words, you are looking for a number (x) that if you multiply it by two (same as twice) and then add 4, you get 652.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 4 = 652

Then you solve the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides, and then divide both sides by 2. Here is the math to illustrate better:

2x + 4 = 652

2x + 4 - 4 = 652 - 4
2x = 648

2x/2 = 648/2
x = 324

Answer = 324

The answer above is correct, because twice 324 is 648, and 4 more than 648 is in fact 652.
